Two Opinions Of Whisky.
BOB INeERsoL's OPINION.

l send you some of the most won
derful whisky that ever drove the
skeleton from feast or painted land
scape in the brain Of man. 1t is the
mingled souls Of wheat and corn. la
it you will 6nd the sunshine and
shadow that chased each other over
the billowy fields, the breath Of June,
the carol of the lark, the dews OF night,
the wealth Of summer and autumn's
rich content, all golden with impris
oned light. Drink it ahd you will
hear the voice of men and maidens
singing the Harvest Home" min
gled with the laughter of children.
Drink it and you will feel within your
blood the startled dawns, the dreamy
tawny dusks of many perfect days.
For forty years this liquid joy has
been within the happy slaves Of oak,
longing to touch the lips of man.

How TO Recall Names.

J For twenty years I have used a
simple but effective plan Of recalling
to mind the forgotten name of a per-
son, a town,a vessel, etc., and thinking
It might be useful to the readers of the
"Helping Hand" l will describe my
mode ofdoing it.
1t I have forgotten the name of a
person l start at the letter A and dwell
= short time upon each letter of the
alphabet until I reach the letter with
which the name begins, when in an
instant it will come to memory. For
instance I knew q person by the name
of Wilson and had not seen him for
many years. We met and his face was
familiar, but l could not recall his
name. To do so I started at the COM
nencement of the alphabet, and, as
have said, slowly dwelt npon each
letter in turn, and the moment l came
to w the name came to my memory.
1t is the same with towns, streets, etc.
II any reader doubts the efficacy of this
plan let her give it a trial. G.

For Good Purposes.

Mrs. NJ. A. Dauphin, Of Philadelphia, Is
well known to the ladies' Of that city from
the great good she has done by means Of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
She writes Mrs. Pinkham Of a recent
interesting case. "a young married lady
came to me suffering with severe case of
Prolapsns and liberation. She commenced
taking the Compound and in two months
was IL RESTORED. In proof of this she
soon found herself in an interesting CON
dition. Influenced by foolish friends she
attempted to evade the responsibilities of
maturity. After ten or twelve days she
came to me again and she was indeed in a
most alarming state and suffered terribly.
I, gave her a tablespoonful of the Com
pound every hour for eight hours until she
fell asleep, she awoke much relieved and
evidently better. She continued taking the
Compound, and in due season she became
the mother of a fine healthy boy. But for
the timely use of the medicine she belie:cs
her life would have been lost"

A Successful Enemy of Rum Fiend.

Henry George.

CHICAGO, November 19.-Henry
George, who arrived in this city to-
day, said to reporter that he was
greatly pleased to see that the total
Labor vote in New York State was
double that of the Prohibitionists,
and predicted that by next Fall
they will be represented at the
polls. .The remarkable degree to
which corruption is practiced in
New York City," said he, "did con-
siderable injury to our ticket at the
recent election. The Democrats
had fifty men at each OF the eighty
one polling booths in the city, and
they refused to allow anti-poverty
voters to cast their ballots. These
toughs were paid from So to - %
for their days labor, and did all
that was asked of them. Until
such time as the Australian method
of carrying on elections is adopted
in this country, honest voters will
he at disadvantage. Allen Thorn
dixie Rice has drawn up a bill
which will be presented to the New
York Legislature at its next session.
This bill will embody many points
which are contained in the Austral'
ian election system, and with the
assistance of the New York leading
papers, which admire this system
feel assured the Legislature viii
act favorably upon it."
